Financial stability - charter prices

Hi
Am I the only one concerned or am I seeing this through a wrong perspective.
I know we are in a very competitive business but these low charter prices, non profit making can't go on forever. As demand seems to be increasing and fuel prices isn't it time for operators to start raising the prices for charter flights?
Triple Alpha, Solid aiR, Air Four, etc, all went under, though for different reasons, they had one thing in common - low prices.
How long will it take for more companies to say they had enough of the loss making and quit the business? Ho long will it take for further pilots to lose their job.
It's just not a sustainable situation. Everyone should be in this business to make €€€... get a grip
